Data is taken from UDAL and is derived from the Community Health Services (CHS) SitRep https://www.england.nhs.uk/statistics/statistical-work-areas/community-health-services-waiting-lists

A number of ICB names and service line names have been reduced so that they fit within tables.

Weighted population numbers have been taken from allocations data for community need. https://www.england.nhs.uk/publication/supporting-spreadsheets-for-allocations-2023-24-to-2024-25

A number of smaller service types have been aggregated to reduce small numbers and to get more insight from service line information.

The following service lines have been aggregated:-

Referral data has been derived by assuming those waiting at end of month, between 0-4 weeks were referred during that month. This is a proxy for referral numbers.

Trend information is caluculated from Statisical Process Control rules, using NHSE Making Data Count methodology https://www.england.nhs.uk/publication/making-data-count

Missing submissions: there are a number of missing submissions historically, which does skew some of the trend analysis. Where possible a submission marker has been added to show that at least one submission has been made per month. Where there is a submission warning, care needs to taken around interpretation due to incomplete data.

Data for this report is available to the public.

The R code to produce this report will shortly be published to github.
